Edward Parkes

Position: Sleep Chair

Who am I?

I am a Clinical Scientist working at the IQIPS accredited Respiratory and Sleep Sciences Department, University Hospital Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust. I have over 15 year's clinical experience and is currently enrolled on the Higher Specialist Scientist Training (HSST) Programme. My clinical specialisms include acute and long term ventilation and exercise induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO).
My academic interests include the development of respiratory failure in motor neurone disease (MND) and weaning patients from acute non-invasive ventilation (NIV). I am a champion of advanced clinical practice within Respiratory Healthcare Sciences and part of the Mary Seacole NHS Leadership Alumni.

A bit about me

I am a keen sports person and enjoy competing in both running and triathlon events.

What would you like to achieve in your new role?

I am keen to develop platforms to share best practice and clinical skills including courses, skills labs and forums for both sleep and non-invasive ventilation. As always I am a champion of advanced clinical practice in respiratory and sleep healthcare sciences.
